Questions
-
It means nothing is added and nothing is hidden. Our candles contain absolutely zero petroleum paraffin, soy modifiers, synthetic fragrances, or chemical dyes. We even omit the metal cups from our tealights, leaving you with nothing but the raw, sun-warmed glow of pure beeswax and a cotton wick.
-
Our beeswax is proudly and exclusively sourced from independent, family-owned apiaries right here in the United States. We partner with dedicated master beekeepers who prioritize sustainable hive management and ethical beekeeping practices.
To preserve the natural beauty of the wax, we use only premium, multi-filtered "cappings" beeswax- the pristine, fresh wax bees use to seal their honey cells. This ensures that every candle we pour retains its rich, authentic honey aroma and signature golden hue, entirely free from chemical bleaching agents, paraffin blends, or artificial fragrances.
-
Yes. Because our naked candles are completely free of synthetic oils, parabens, and plastics, they are a comforting, low-tox tool for individuals with sensitive nervous systems, respiratory issues, or MCAS.
-
We choose to keep our candles entirely naked. Essential oils often lose their therapeutic benefits and can even release synthetic-like biproducts when subjected to the incredibly high burn temperatures required by beeswax. We let the raw honey scent speak for itself.
-
A dusty white film on your candle is a natural process called "bloom." This is a visual guarantee of 100% purity, occurring as the natural oils within the beeswax migrate to the surface. You can leave it for an authentic look, or easily wipe it away with a soft cloth or warm hands.
-
Beeswax is the slowest-burning wax available. Our 3x3 pillars burn for approximately 40+ hours, our mini 2x3 pillars burn for approximately 20+ hours, and our individual tealights provide a long, steady burn of approximately 3.5 to 4.5 hours each.
-
To keep our footprint entirely plastic- and aluminum free, our naked tealights are designed to be placed directly into your own reusable glass, or ceramic tealight holders.
-
